Because crackers, 'progressive' or regressive, will always bear water and run defense for white supremacy before they ever consider liberating the subjects of empire that they feel entitled to camaraderie from and companionship with. It never fails. It's the same root from which springs the perennial "we don't have a race issue in Amerika, just a class issue" out of radlibs and anarchists, it's the same root from which springs the "well he was no angel, clearly he deserved it" out of the copsuckers and conservatives.
Crackers will always close ranks around their own before they ever think about reparating or restituting. "Leftists" like Amber are exactly why I don't trust the white left, and only organize with Black formations and organizations anymore.

A recent BadEmpanada vid contrasted the white anti-apartheid activists in south africa joining the black resistance orgs, vs the israeli "anti-apartheid" types almost exclusively forming their own little NGOs among themselves and condemning actual resistance groups.
Same shit throughout history
Malcolm X stated that was the reason he avoided working with white people and he later regretted turning away one white college student because she was like the one white person who genuinely wanted to follow black leadership.
I can't even imagine someone saying this IRL without getting dogpiled. fucking hell
Keyboards make everybody a lot bolder than they would be in grass-space
The “common knowledge” amongst normie libs and Chuds is that America is the least racist country on Earth, and actually it is the dastardly Chinese that are the real racists
